Thanks for sharing that! SO GOOD!

Mine didn't come today!!! WHY GOD WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is by far my favorite pedal I've played. It's so texturally/harmonically rich. It does it all-sparkle, scream, sludge. I've never felt endless possibilities like this before. The Filter is so incredibly juicy. Sounds I've been chasing for a LONG time are dialing right in. So easy to learn- no feelings of being overwhelmed by control schemes. Just absolute Perfection in the execution.

I just finished playing the album as well- absolutely stunning. The best part of all of this, imo, is that you perfectly realized the aural experience of the album with this pedal. Just WOW!

Bummer I couldn't get in on this. Everything I've seen and heard is really impressive.

Yeah. It's awesome, Brian! I spent a few hours on it, and barely scratched the surface, but at the same time dialed in some amazing sounds [afraid to move off the last one until I documented it]. So dope. Incredible range. Super musical.

Well done, B.

Ultimately my great day for gear acquisition proved a (mostly) lost day for experimentation. Interruptions and whatnot.
I did (briefly) get to spend a half hour with the pedal I've been thinking about for 3 months. Settled in at the end of my signal chain.
Used it with 2 other pedals, so it was RRR > DMM > PY. It's unprecedented how much better both pedals sounded through it.
It is exactly what I was hoping for in that regard. Looking forward to diving in & turning up with it tomorrow

Pedal looks great, dude.
Hope y'all enjoy. I was on the fence about getting one. This thread will make me regret my decision but that's life, eh?

I hope mine gets here today. There are so many videos I want to make that I'm going crazy.

Couldn't have said it better myself. There's so much possible in this box, both musical and noiseical. I've never enjoyed a gainy guitar tone as much as I enjoy these sounds. The filter section really opens up a world of possibilities for totally devastating sounds. Two adjectives that repeatedly came to mind with some more extreme settings were "degrading" and "mangled" Also it plays *very* well with CV. If y'all have CV sources, it would be irresponsible not to try it out.

If anyone's interested in some clips, I posted a couple CV experiments on my instagram and twitter (both @EvanGordon). There's more to come, but here are the two that I've posted so far:
- Guitar loop into the Pretty Years receiving scrambled CV input from a Dwarfcraft Happiness (all filtering is coming from the Pretty Years, the Happiness is acting solely as a CV source)
https://twitter.com/EvanGordon/status/7 ... 8781642752

- Pretty Years acting as a tone source (pushed into oscillation via resonance) with CV input from an 8-Step Program - totally wicked and tweakable sequencing with no audio input necessary.

Man, I can't wait to get an 8step for my (still incoming) PY. I was planning to use it for the step function more than anything, but that sequence.

So I turned knobs and flipped switches on it for about an hour last night and there are really a lot of sounds in this thing. For about the first half hour, I had a hard time getting the 60 cycle hum out of it and before I did, I was starting to think it was broken. But then I turned something, I can't remember what, and it was gone. Then the next half hour, I just messed with different things until I got a fuzzy sound that I really liked a lot. It's a unique sound, never quite heard anything like it, I don't think.

Sounded great complimenting a Carcosa on a separate amp and a silicon Kama Suture on a separate amp (got those last two in the pgs sale over the weekend). It filled in the gaps with its unique texture.

Glad I got in on this, will be a pedal to explore for years to come I think.

PY landed and wrecked me, holy shit I can't wait to try this on a real amp. It sounded amazing through my iPad though. If it wasn't for work I'd still be playing.

i was informed that i stupidly left off the FM knob from the manual - to anyone confused, you need to toggle the FM +/- switch either up or down to engage the knob. the modulation can range from auto-filter/envelope-type effects to super gnarly fizzled out grit. ccw is less modulation, cw is more modulation.
